LYRICS:
Tell me it's easy
And the sailing is smooth
Look how far we've traveled
And how little we've moved

Tell me it's worth it
All this crossing of lines
"There's a rainbow at the end
And we'll get there in time"

Tell me that good lie
And we'll see this through
There's time still left for spending
But you know that we're damned if we do

Tell me we'll fix this
Though the damage is done
Who says the war is over
When the battle is won?

Pretend you've got answers
And I'll try not to ask
There's a rainbow at the end
And I'm up for the task

Oh, good lies
We'll see this through
There's no time now for spending
And you know we'll be damned if we do

Tell me that good lie
And we'll see this through
The job's not mine for taking
But I'll be damned if I leave it to you
